- TriviaFor Michael Chiklis' performance as "Thing", a new set of prosthetics were developed. These prosthetics were easier for Chiklis to wear, as they provided better ventilation and could be easily removed, in comparison to the previous film's prosthetics which required six hours to apply, were uncomfortable and could not be easily removed.
- Goofs(at around 27 mins) When the Surfer approaches NYC, things begin to lose electrical power. At one point, a construction worker is shown confused when his jackhammer stop, and with good reason. The jackhammer is pneumatic, and would continue to run as long as there was air pressure in the tank. Even if its diesel-powered compressor (which doesn't run on electricity) stopped for some reason, the hammer would still run for several minutes.

Featured review
Potential for a great movie, the Surfer is a great character and has underrated and amazing abilities. I'd say he's one of the strongest characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The chase scene between the Human Torch and Surfer was amazing.
Overall, the movie touched a bit on that greatness but fell short. My personal rating is probably leaning more towards a 6.5 than a 7.5 but obviously we cannot include decimals in our rating so the movie earns a solid 7. Perhaps production costs prevented what could have been an amazing movie.
Anyone saying, "it sucked" are exaggerating but those saying it was amazing have probably not seen many films to judge appropriately.
